Rosa and Cherry's class was excellent. They were informative and helpful and our three hour class covered the basics of using a potter's wheel and clay moulding in a really fun and accessible way. The class was a great introduction to pottery making in a bright and relaxed environment.

Rosa was a gem! From start to finish she made the workshop so much fun. It was a lovely such to get involved in and I felt learnt something new. It w a s my first time in pottery making and such a great experience. I flopped a few times but it was all part of the learning process. What I loved the most about this workshop was that you get to keep the pots that you make... you just have to wait a few weeks for them to get glazed. Highly recommend getting involved if you want something different to do with a partner, friends or family.
